Is anyone else aware of fords little secret (Not so secret now), with 2 odometer readings loged, one in dash, other in computer, was previously used to tell if the cluster was changed, yet been informed it'll now be used to void warrantys when kms readings are way out from front to rear. Eg Dyno Runs! Can anyone shed some light on the subject?

Yep aware of it. Dont know much more on the topic though

although they could of change it since I stop working at the ford dealer I have never heard of this and having used the ids unit alot.

You had to record the speedo reading and reload it if you replaced the speedo so it never recorded it itself.

Found this out last week from a knowledgeable ford tech in Brisbane. He only heard bout it few days before that. I asked bout wheel spin? He said ford doesn't care bout slight variations in kms between front and rear, yet few hundred kms they will if any serious warranty issues, eg driveline. They'll try anything to forgo claims. This has me concerned as would like to get car on dyno just to see power before and then after mods down the track. Maybe could get away with "speedo calibration" like the few police cars have been doing lately.

like I said they may have changed. speedo testing is the go you need that so the police cant book you haha.

where on the downs are you

So with that yellow/ orange sticker might help lol. I've checked my spedo with GPS and reading quite accuratly so no worries there. Out past toowoomba.
